AND HAS WORLD’S LARGEST !
HOItSEPC >WKU.
BERLIN, November 16.—The North
German Gazette official!}' reiterates
the claim that he new German cruiser
battleship Von der Tann is the fast
est vessel of any kind In the world,
and specifically contends that it is
filler than the British ships of the
same type, the Invincible, the Indom
itable and the Inflexibl».
The Von d< r Tann’s speed of 27.1
knots, reported earlrer In the month,
was. it is said, merely Urn average
speed attained during six trips over
a course six miles long through water j
about 200 feet deep. Detail* which !
have since reached the admiralty !
show that the cruiser actually attain
ed a maximum of 28 124 knots and
ihat her engines developed 80,000- !
horsepower (7). I’rom this the rte-.l
duetlon is drawn that the vessel In j
water 300 feet deep can reguiarlv 1
maintain 2S knots.
The official organ points out that,
inas much sh Mr McKenna claimed
in the house of commons for the In- !
vincible. Indomitable and Inflexible,
respectively, speeds of 26.SR. 26.1 and j
26.5 knots, the assertion Is fully jus- j
tifled that the Von der Tann possesses ;
at the present moment the highest
speed and greatist engine power nut
only of any cruiser afloat, but of any .
vessel in existent e.
